Articles

Microparticle drug delivery systems have been extensively researched and applied to a wide variety of pharmaceutical and medical applications due to a number of advantages including injectability, local applicability to target tissues and sites, and controlled drug delivery over a given time period.

The development of drugs that target specific locations within the human body remains one of the greatest challenges in biomedicine today.

Professor Nicola Tirelli (Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Italy) highlights the microfluidic-assisted method for fabricating well-defined and reproducible nanoparticles for drug delivery research.
